West Bromwich Albion fans have praised Claudio Yacob after he snapped Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish last night.

Yacob, who is now at Nottingham Forest, was booked for a crunching tackle on Grealish, during Aitor Karanka’s side’s match at Villa Park.

And West Brom fans credited Yacob for his contribution in last night’s match.

Yacob is still fondly remembered at the Hawthorns, for his passionate displays.

The midfield man has recently broken into Forest’s team, but he may not have been too pleased with his defensive display last night.

Forest and Villa played out a remarkable 5-5 draw, with both sides seemingly unable to stop the other team’s attack.

West Brom, meanwhile, were also in action, although their match was not quite as free-scoring.

The Baggies won 2-1 over Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium to push up to fourth in the Championship table.
